What to look for
-
Out-of-focus foreground
With focus on the set, the studio cameras across the foreground go soft with single edges and no double outlines. The right camera's hood against the white panel wall is the cleanest place to see it.

-
Backgrounds
Through the hatch, the chairs stay single-edged against the lit wall, and the small light hanging behind goes to an evenly filled disc with no bright rim.
Frames 08
-
Straight lines
Looking down the temple hall, the leadlight across the top of frame stays straight, with no barrel bowing.
